With every Gobe product purchased trees are planted in areas most affected by deforestation.

As of November in 2019 we’ve become the sole sponsor of a site in Madagascar called Morangobe which employs 43 families but was at risk of being shut down due to a sudden loss of funding. We’ve committed to planting 100,000 trees per month in Morangobe to ensure restoration can continue there. Any additional trees are spread across our planting sites in Indonesia, Nepal, Haiti and Mozambique.

The trees are planted by locals, providing vital employment while rejuvenating their world and ours.

I came across the brand GOBE seeking a new SD card for my new camera. I tried and I am not disappointed. I enjoyed the minimalist packaging that appears to be in recycled material. Apparently this is a brand committed to the environment .
I did some speed tests and advertised speeds are correct. (Posted on 4/11/2016)

I was surprised to see the little comment on this brand. In view of performances compared to behemoths segment, Sandisk, Lexar Transcend etc ...
As I desired to renovate and expand capacity in the two SD slots for my D610, so I ordered two Gobe Explorer, a 64GB for RAW and JPEG for 32GB. I also bought a Transcend card reader USB 3.0.
Unpacking I indulged in a little empirical test which I deliver results, from a mixed content:

Regarding the reading I think the drive flange performs by its own limitation because no card is over 60 MB / s
In terms of the writing speed is, here are the results:

In terms of longevity, we'll see over time but since Gobe guarantee lifetime replacement, I'm not too worried ...
A small point - Great recycled packaging, thick paper (not plastic blister) and 1% for the environment!
I think I will make another small round supply in this brand for my Fuji X (Posted on 4/11/2016)

It is well protected on delivery (slightly thick envelope and plastic box)

The recording speed is very good. Even when shooting in full HD with my SLR.
Or taking heavy pictures, sometimes exceeding 20 MB when I shoot in RAW, I have no problems with recording to this card

It is recognized by my carefree Reflex Canon . (Posted on 4/11/2016)

I am very satisfied with this high performance SD card!
I have not managed to achieve the specified performance but I think it comes mainly from my SD card reader (2.0 not 3.0).

Anyway, it's perfect in my camera for photos and videos in HD !

The support is also very serious and helpful.

You will not be disappointed with this card! (Posted on 4/11/2016)

Fast enough SD cardReview by By Zast on 6th of March 2016

I usually use Sandisk or Transcend cards. On the one hand for their performance and others for reliability. The Gobe brand SD card surprised me this time.

Before use, I tested the speed in order to see the actual speed writing and reading.

The result is clear.

- Read and write sequentially on a 50 mb file, the result is 90.62 MB / s read and 52.24 MB / s

Now remains to reliability over the long term because none of my other brand cards have never had any problems despite my heavy use with an SLR .

I will come back to update my review if there are any technical problems

64 GB SDXC with 104 mb / s read and 70MB / s write (model magic 90 mb / s) much faster than the Sandisk or transcend and only 1 euro more. Before buying I got into the website of GOBE and immediately got through to chat with an advising employee of the very friendly company. For now the SD card is fine. 100% recommendable.

I bought the card because I needed to record 4K video at 100 mbps and my cards Class 10 could not. I bought this because besides Class 10, which refers to speed read, have quality UHS 3 which is a high quality regarding writing speed and has gone great perfectly recorded video 100 mbps and when used in the camera photo also goes perfect in rapid burst taking many photos as it records very quickly. I have it recently but has shown great quality. I will use Gobe again :) (Posted on 4/10/2016)

I did not know the brand or anyone around me who could advise me about it, but I trusted the opinions that you could see on the internet and decided to buy it, especially what it promises and the price, and I was pleased satisfactorily, it looks very good quality and I have already used in several recordings in 4K and goes perfect, nothing to envy to its competitor Sandisk extreme and besides being cheaper, you contribute to the environment.
